Seductive Temptress

A red scarf ribbon around her neck It flows elegantly down her back She hit me like a blow in the dark Caressing the hump of her trademark She knows I’m watching her walk Without having to look back I wish she could stop so we could talk I'd say, 'How about a drink?' But there’s so many of us to pick So she walks on without a squeak It's better this way, knowing my luck I'd probably stutter, and my mind go blank Some call out to her, but she’s used to that bark Men are dogs and I’m a member of the pack I proved it today, I tried to hold back My feelings were too strong to fake In her disappearance from my obsession I awake And all the judgemental eyes I take The seductive temptress her birthmark Inspired by Lyric Man

Brilliant imagery - i am sure many can relate to being tongue tied when they see someone they fancy - love the imagery of men as dogs hunting in packs. I think Dave will be flattered by your write:-) Hugs jan xx
